CCH has a warehouse in Miami.
The benefits of CCH establishing a warehouse in Miami, Florida, USA: A "pre-positioning revolution" in the supply chain
In August 2026, CCH's warehouse in Miami officially went into operation. This was not a simple "rent a place to store goods" operation; rather, it was a well-thought-out supply chain reconfiguration in CCH's North American strategy.
To understand the significance of this matter, it needs to be dissected from four perspectives: the geographical advantages of Miami, the unique attributes of hardware products, the general logic of overseas warehouses, and the alignment of CCH's own positioning.
- Miami: Not "any random city"
Miami Port, as an important logistics hub in the southeastern United States, has a year-round throughput of over 1.2 million TEUs, with new Panamax vessel berthing capacity. The Florida East Coast Railway provides direct railway access to the port, and goods can reach 65% of the US market within 4 days. This means that goods shipped from Miami can reach the major furniture manufacturing belts in the southeastern and central parts of the US within a very short time.
More importantly, Miami is a natural stepping stone to Latin America. Its container transportation partners include countries like Honduras, Guatemala, and Venezuela in Latin America. The transshipment ratio at Miami Port has risen from 25% in 2022 to 35% in 2025. For CCH, the Miami warehouse not only serves domestic customers in the US but can also become a "pre-positioning transfer station" for the market in Latin America.
Furthermore, the customs district where Miami is located recorded a trade surplus of 20.5 billion US dollars in 2025, with exports of 84.5 billion US dollars and imports of 64 billion US dollars. The core feature of its trade model is "logistics and transit hub" rather than simple manufacturing and export. This aligns perfectly with CCH's positioning of "serving North America and radiating to Latin America".
- The "necessity of overseas warehouses for hardware products"
CCH's core products - hinges, sliding rails, handles, and drawers - belong to typical hardware categories: numerous varieties, not necessarily large individual quantities, but with extremely high requirements for delivery time and after-sales service.
Industry data shows that in the traditional direct mail mode for hardware tools, international shipping costs often reach 40%-60% of the product price, and the 2-4 week waiting period is likely to lead to customer churn, with a return rate of 20%-30%. The overseas warehouse model can compress the delivery time to 2-5 days, reducing the return rate to below 8%, and saving 60% in logistics costs.
The meaning of these data is straightforward: For hardware products, overseas warehouses are not an "add-on", but a "survival item".
- The four core values of overseas warehouses
The general value of overseas warehouses can be summarized in four dimensions:
First, the revolution in timeliness. Traditional cross-border direct delivery from domestic collection → international transportation → customs clearance → destination delivery usually takes 7-15 days. With pre-stocking at overseas warehouses, orders are dispatched from the local warehouse immediately upon order placement, with core areas delivering within 1-3 days. For CCH's North American customers - furniture manufacturers and cabinet producers - this means that the production line can plan the replenishment of hardware components on a "weekly" rather than "monthly" basis.
Second, cost optimization. Bulk shipping in the first leg reduces the single-piece transportation cost to one-third of direct mail, and the local delivery cost is only 30%-40% of international small packages. Under the scale effect, the long-term comprehensive cost is significantly lower than scattered direct delivery.
Third, advantages in return handling. Cross-border returns if transported back to the domestic country often cost close to or exceeding the product price. Local handling at overseas warehouses can reduce the return cost by more than 50% and support quality inspection, label replacement, and secondary sales, shortening the handling cycle to 72 hours.
Fourth, buffer against tariff risks. Pre-stocking at overseas warehouses before tariff policy changes can complete the entry before the sudden imposition of additional tariffs. Experts from the China Institute of International Trade and Economic Cooperation pointed out that "offshore warehouses, through advance stocking and localized operations, effectively avoid the increase in costs caused by fluctuations in tariffs."
- The unique logic of CCH: Warehouses are not just "warehouses"
For CCH, the value of the warehouse in Miami has a special layer: it also serves as a "service window".
The core competitiveness of CCH is "quality-price ratio" - not the lowest price, but reliable quality, compliance with standards, and guaranteed delivery. This competitiveness can only be fully perceived in a "face-to-face" scenario. North American customers can test the smoothness of the hinge opening and closing, the load-bearing performance of the sliding track, and verify the installation convenience of the weld-free light strips in the warehouse exhibition hall.
A local warehouse that allows on-site inspection, immediate pickup, and rapid replenishment means that for furniture manufacturers and cabinet producers, the controllability of supply chain risks has significantly improved.
The quality commitments of CCH products, such as compliance with ASTM/EN standards, ISO certification factory production, and 50,000 opening and closing tests - these can only be "believed" by customers in the "transoceanic direct delivery, no inspection" model; while in the exhibition hall of the Miami warehouse, customers can "confirm".
- Summary: A "definitive" investment
The essence of CCH's Miami warehouse is to exchange advance inventory for delivery certainty.
When the competition in global hardware trade shifts from "price" to "value", and from "products" to "services", overseas warehouses become the key to opening up the North American market. The CCH Miami warehouse is the first cog of this key.
